I’d like actual examples instead of “I work faster”, something like “I can move straight to the middle of the file with 7mv” or “I can keep 4 different text snippets in memory and paste each with a number+pt, like 2pt”, things that you actually use somewhat frequently instead of what you can do, but probably only did once.

Time saved is not the most important part. Here is my opinion:
- it is very satisfying to use. Once it becomes muscle memory, vim just gets out of your way, and you feel like you’re one with the computer. Your ideas flow freely from brain to document.
- neovim is highly customizable and scriptable. You can make it do many things, many of which were never even conceived by the developers.
